The aeaication exerelees tor the
new Bunn High School Building were
observed on Friday. Although the
weather was very Inclement a- large
crowd gathered to take a part in the
celebration ot the further advance
ment this progressive community has
taken along educational lines. This
time the honors and bouquets Were
not directed at Bunn alone but to the
newly formed school district which In
cludes the following schools: Pine
Ridge, Pilot, Pearce. Math Rock, Roy
al, Rock Springs, New Hope, Riley
and Bunn.
In presenting the exercises Supt.
L. H. Davis presided as master of cere
monies, and through his engenulty
kept things lively throughout a most
Interesting and well arranged pro
gram.
The services were opened with the
audience standing and singing Ameri
ca, after which Rev. E. C. Crawford
pronounced the invocation.
. A. F. Johnson Chairman of the
Board of Education of Franklin coun
ty, after reviewing the educatlMial
! < ".lievements of these communiwes,
1 .;??.! anted the new building to the
Do id of Trustees with the earnest
cctrffy that It be used to the fullest
op..; . inity and advantage of all the
boys . 1 girls within this district.
J. R. YT-ilte, representing the Board
of Trust. Si, received the building and
in turn presented It to the student
body in a most urgent and interesting
talk, pointing out to them the advan
ages and opportunities that were be
ing offered them and predicting thgy |
would make full use of them. i
The building was received for the)
student body In a very pretty little
speech by Miss Lena Bell Jones, of
the Pilot school, in which she spoke i
of the hardships and trials of the
children under former conditions and
expressed the pleasure they would get
in their work in the new building.
The High School Glee Club present
ed an excellent vocal number that was
greatly enjoyed.
Supt. E. Li. Best stating that 'To
give to every boy and girl In North
Carolina and equal educational op
portunty regardless ot where they
live," was the slogan of the gentleman
who was to speak to them and In a
very nice manner presented State
Superintendent A. T. Allen, who made
an unusually strong appeal in behalf
oi public education. He considered
It an honor to be present at the dedi
cation of the nice new building and
complimented the people of the dis
trict warmly for their perseverance In
bringing about such advantages and"
opportunities for their children. He
was glad It was accepted by a mem
ber of the student body, showing a co
operation that will work to the In
terest of all. He reviewed the history
of the public school system, going
back to Its beginning la Europe and
tracing It down to the present time.
The debate was begun In North Caro
lina in 1886 since which time the peo
ple of this grand old State has set up
for themselves a public school sys
tem that Is unexcelled anywhere. "We
are doing that which no other coun
try Is doing by giving our children
a public high school," said the speak
er.- Suppose there had been no im
provement in the past sewenty-flve
years, what would have become- of
the children he asked. He said there
were 40,000 children in North Caro
lina outside of the cities and towns
In the high schools. He said It was
Impossible to place a money value on
the education of a child. "North
Carolina," he said, "is face to face
with the great problem of progressive
education." His was a most tnterertlng
address filled with many facts and
figures that are worthy of serious
thought and consideration and was
enjoyed by a large number.
Supt Davis made the usual an
nouncement about lunch and the serv
ices were haulted to repair the inner
mm before taking up the afternoon's
program.
After the dedication exercises came
the various contests between the pub
lic schools of the district, and In spite
of the col<t cloudy weather and the
mud the field contests came off with
lota of snap and speed. The literary
And muilo&l cottU?t? wire the best
ever seen at Bunn. Many of the num
bers were perfect, laident that they
www so, not only because of the ori
ginality aid talent o? the pupils but
also because of the Clowe efficient
training which they had received from
their teachers. The contestasawhole
was a close one, Pilot winning with
-100 points, Bunn and Fine Ridge tle

Riley coming last with B points.

The big day was brougtit to a cli
max that evening at I o'clock in the
auditorium of the new buildng by a
play, "The Prince of Liars," given byl
the faculty of the Bunn High 8chool.'
From the standpoint of entertainment1
It was by far the best thing of the day. I
It made a hit; and Judging from the.
applauseof the audience at times Some
of the players made more than a hit
?they must have smashed a home-run
right over the fence. In the first
place, it was a gpod play; and in the
second place, the faculty, either by
training or by their natural ability,
got it off well. The prince of liars
lied so well and could tell a lie so
much like the truth that we wondered
Just' how long he had been at that
sort of thing. We wonder it he will
ever be able to tell the truth again.
Then there was an aggravating fasci
nating little flapper that kept darting
In and out on the stage?we never
did find not her real' name?but we
left wondering Just how much of that
was a "make op" and how much really
apart of her. Every member of the
faculty ptayed their part well, and we
hope.to hoar of their giving the play
again somewhere before the school

SOCIETIES GIYE PROGRAM TESTS
Saturday evening at 8 o'clock in the
society halls of the College, the Nei
thean and Sea Gigt literary societies
presented a serious and enthusiastic
program contest, the winners of
which were to be awarded a prize
by the loaers.
The challenged society, the Sea
Gift, led oft with a dainty picture play
"The Evolution of a Flapper," in which
the process was symbolized from the
Pilgrim maid to the Flapper Flirt.
This was followed by a "Blue Beard
Stunt," during which the audience en
joyed again the awful agony and sus
pense of the old, old story. The cli
max of the well balanced program was
reached in an original skit, "A Moot
Court," in which a wicked man was
tried for stealing a moonlight ride
with a lovely Louisburg College girl,
in spite of a fiflthful policeman, a
watchful janitor, and a matchless
dean. The cast had worked out a per*
feet court order, and the whole pro?
cess moved forward in an orderly and
dignified manner in spite of the many
laughter provoking incidents.
The challeging society, the Nelthean
presented first a series of "Shakes
pearian Flashes," the "Sleep walking
scene" from "Macbeth," the first ap
pearance of the "Ghost" in "Hamlet,"
and the climax of the "Balcony scene"
from Romeo and Juliet." The tension
of the serious work was broken by
another series of "Flashes," this time
a Broadway chorus and Will Rogers
gave thrilling, exhibits of song and
story, preparing the audience tor the
startling array of celebrities Padew
reski, Heifetz, Sousa and Mariun Tal
ler, each of whom entertained in a
characteristic manner. The program
closed with a succession of "Louis
burg scenes,"- in which various mem
bers of the faculty, and friends in
town who are "of us," were skillfully
impersonated.
Both programs were characterised
by such commendable merit both in
subject matter and presentation, that
no one envied the three judges their
nice task of decision. The chairman
in rendering the decision by which the
"feea Gift" was declared the winner,
said the line'was closely drawn, and
hard to find.

TALKS CREAMERY
Prof. A. C. Kimrey, of the State
College at Raleigh, was in Louisburg
on Thursday night of last week to
meet a few citlxens of the county to
discuss the question of Interesting
the farmers In a creamery
or the shipping of cream to an
other point. The matter was thorough
ly gone Into and It was ascertained
that Franklin county was not situat
ed at present so that It could support
a creamery, but that It was easily
possible and advisable that they de
velop this feature on their farms by
maintaining from three to five cows
each and shipping cream. It was
figured that the ordinary average cow
averaging two and one-half gallons
of milk per day would turn ih a re
venue to the owner of about $11K 90
annually. And that this number of
cows could be taken care of on the
average farm at practically no ftd
dltlonl expense. I
Dr. W. R. Bass and county agent
Harris were requested to find six or
a dosen farmers In the county who]
would be interested in such an enter
prise and get In touch with Prof Klt?
rey, who would come odwn and go'
into the matter fully with them.
M. S. Clifton speaking tor the banks
stated that they would be glad to fi
nance several cars of pure bred cattle
for this purpose.
The Information received was very
encouraging and will possibly result
In the enterprise being established.
